None can stop the aging clock and none can reverse this process either. Invest your time wisely. Pursue activities that are beneficial and worthwhile. Keep reading this article for insightful tips on caring for yourself as you age.
One of the best ways on how to prevent and slow the aging process is by being happy. This can be done by filling your life with love and joy. A good habit is to practice stress relieving activities since stress contributes to speeding up the aging process. A happy person automatically has a happy body.
Turn off the tv and get off of the couch. We all need our vices, but if you are spending every evening on the couch then something is wrong. We have to keep our bodies and brains active as we age and watching tv isn't doing any of those. Limit your tv watching to just one or two evenings a week and do something active or interesting on your nights off.
Keeping your cholesterol under control is important for aging well. A build up of cholesterol can raise your risk of stroke or heart attack. Eating a diet low in animal fats and high in fiber can help keep your cholesterol level under control by increasing your HDL (good) cholesterol and reducing your LDL (bad) cholesterol.
Understand hormone imbalances and be sure to treat them. As you age, many of the more difficult challenges are caused by imbalances in your hormones. This includes issues like depression, insomnia and weight increases. Go to your doctor if you are feeling off in any way and have yourself tested. Doctors can put you on a plan for supplementing your hormones.
Take the time to be grateful for the things that you have in your life. Each day before you get out of bed, stop and think about at least five things that you are thankful for. This can be your heath, family, friends or any other little thing that you appreciate in life.
If you feel your better years are behind you, try writing down your thoughts. This can be done through a poem, blog, letter or journal. Writing gets your brain working, and you can express who you are or may even come up with new ideas. The best part is you will realize how much knowledge and wisdom you already have with which you can impart to others.
Get the proper amount of water each day! This is important as the years go by! Without proper hydration, your body will react in terrible ways. It could lead to things as serious as seizures, brain damage or even death. Buy a large jug that will hold eight glasses of water and fill it each morning. Make sure that it is empty by the time you go to bed.
Make sure you're keeping active. Your body needs exercise to function properly, especially as you age. Adding thirty minutes of exercise into your daily routine can not only keep you looking younger, but it can also extend your life. And don't wait until you're already old to exercise, start as early as possible.
To age gracefully, remember to include safety into your life. By putting safety first, you increase your odds of living longer. You will also be a living example to your children and grandchildren that safety matters. Always wear your seat belt when traveling in a car. Wear a helmet when riding your bike. Use smoke detectors in your house and change its batteries regularly. By just using common sense, you can reduce the risk of accidents, which could injure your body or even cause death.
Aging is inevitable for everyone. One of the first things to deal with when becoming older is accepting this fact. When you realize that it will happen to absolutely everyone who is lucky enough to survive it will become a bit easier for you to deal with the day to day realities.
Why not try some proven and well-received Chinese methods which can be either preventative or pro-active? Adding shiitake, maitake, morel and reishi mushrooms in your diet will help lower cholesterol, give you an energy boost, can help prevent high blood pressure and give your immune system overall protection. If the thought of mushrooms is distasteful to you, you can take them in supplement form.
If you notice a lack of balance, weakened limbs, memory loss and poor coordination as you age, start taking a vitamin B12 supplement. Most people automatically assume that senility is the cause of memory loss yet it can also be a vitamin B12 deficiency. Talk to your doctor about testing to see if you are vitamin B12 deficient and how much you should supplement into your diet.
It's possible to have fun during your retirement. You need to be sure you are healthy so you can age happily. You will find many sources of information to help you. You can easily get the most out of your senior years by trying new experiences and staying busy.
